Simpson SET3G22-N SET-3G High-Strength Epoxy Adhesive from Simpson Strong-Tie is an epoxy-based anchoring adhesive engineered for anchoring threaded rod and rebar into both cracked and uncracked concrete. This low-odor, two-component system mixes at a 1:1 ratio to a uniform gray color, making it easy to confirm proper mixing on the jobsite. Designed to install and perform across a wide range of environmental conditions - including dry concrete, water-saturated concrete, water-filled holes, and submerged concrete - this 22 oz. side-by-side cartridge delivers the design strength and jobsite versatility that structural anchoring applications demand. Each cartridge ships with one EMN22i mixing nozzle and one nozzle extension included.

Key Features

• Superior bond strengths for high seismic applications - exceptional performance enables ductile solutions in high seismic areas, giving structural engineers the design flexibility they need in demanding environments.
• ICC-ES AC308 recognition for post-installed rebar - accepted for post-installed rebar development and splice length design provisions, so specifiers can use this adhesive with confidence on code-compliance projects.
• Improved sustained load performance at elevated temperature - enhanced design flexibility means the adhesive maintains reliable performance even when in-service conditions push toward temperature extremes.
• Wide in-service temperature range from -40 deg. Fahrenheit (-40 deg. Celsius) to 176 deg. Fahrenheit (80 deg. Celsius) - can be specified for all base material conditions across temperature extremes, reducing the need for multiple adhesive products on a single project.
• Approved for use with multiple vacuum-drill bit systems without further hole cleaning - speeds up installation by eliminating extra prep steps; approved systems are listed in Code Report ESR-4057.
• Tested per ICC-ES AC308 (ESR-4057), ACI 355.4, and applicable ASTM test methods - independent third-party testing gives buyers and inspectors documented performance verification for submittal packages.
• Suitable for downward, horizontal, and overhead installations - versatile orientation capability means one product handles the full range of anchor and rebar dowel placements on a jobsite.
• Low-odor formula - reduces discomfort for installers working in confined or enclosed spaces, supporting a more comfortable and safer work environment.

Why This Product

• One adhesive for virtually any concrete anchoring condition - whether the hole is dry, water-saturated, water-filled, or submerged, SET-3G is formulated to perform, eliminating the guesswork of selecting different products for different site conditions.
• Built for seismic zones - qualified for use in structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories A through F, making this epoxy adhesive a reliable choice for projects in high seismic regions where ductile anchor performance is required by code.
• Ready to install out of the box - each 22 oz. cartridge includes the EMN22i mixing nozzle and a nozzle extension, so installers have everything needed to get started without sourcing accessories separately.
• Engineered and tested for code-compliant post-installed rebar work - recognition per ICC-ES AC308 for rebar development and splice length design means structural engineers and contractors can rely on this product for rebar dowel applications that require documented, approved performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SET-3G epoxy adhesive used for?

SET-3G is an epoxy-based anchoring adhesive formulated for anchoring threaded rod and rebar into concrete - both cracked and uncracked. It is suitable for use in dry concrete, water-saturated concrete, water-filled holes, and submerged concrete, and can be installed in downward, horizontal, and upwardly inclined (including overhead) orientations.

What temperature range is SET-3G rated for installation and in-service use?

SET-3G has a substrate installation temperature range from 40 deg.F (4 deg.C) to 100 deg.F (38 deg.C). Once cured, it can be specified for all base material conditions when in-service temperatures range from - 40 deg.F ( - 40 deg.C) to 176 deg.F (80 deg.C).

Is SET-3G approved for seismic applications?

Yes. SET-3G delivers superior bond strengths that permit ductile solutions in high seismic areas and is qualified for use in structures assigned to Seismic Design Categories A through F. It is also recognized per ICC-ES AC308 for post-installed rebar development and splice length design provisions.

What mixing nozzle is required for SET-3G, and is one included?

Use only Simpson Strong-Tie mixing nozzles in accordance with Simpson Strong-Tie instructions; modification or improper use of mixing nozzle may impair SET-3G adhesive performance. Each cartridge includes (1) EMN22i mixing nozzle and (1) nozzle extension.
